Hi Joe,
> min = a[index] < min;
I think PerW mentionned the right bug here, and his correction is
also plausible. This compiles and runs, as bool values are
automatically converted to numerals. If your contained type was
something not having got a constructor getting bools (or anything
bool is convertible to), then the code wouldn't compile.
Furthermore, the book you mentioned is "Not Recommended." Just
take a look to the following critique from ACCU, which is the
best (at lease C++) critique:

(Don't click on it, just copy/pates it in the addresbar.)
And as the final point, from Generic Programming standpoint, your
code is poorly implemented. I recommend the following Bible to
improve your Generic Programming skills:
